Reasonable Doubts about Paul Copan's Defense of Genocide

August 21, 2011 Thom Stark
The guys over at Reasonable Doubts have begun what they're calling their "Summer Genocide Series," in which they're reviewing and critiquing Paul Copan's white-washing of the Canaanite conquest narratives in his book, Is God a Moral Monster?, which I reviewed here. Their first episode in the series makes extensive reference to my critical review. It's a very good discussion, which summarizes the salient points made by Copan very well, valuable for believers and non-believers alike.
